an update of karmic nature

so i heard through the grapevine (from her own brother) that the former miss bk (i know, i barely remember her either) is marrying the man she cheated on bk with. this involves a move to spain. phew! in the almost four years that we've lived under one mile from each other i have never (to my knowledge) crossed paths with her. i've seen her from across the way at her place of employment but never had a run in with her. in fact, up until a few weeks ago i never dreamed of her even. (in this dream she came up to me and scratched me across the face, pulled my hair and called me a whore. tragically, even given the relative safety of rem sleep, i took the high road and turned on my heel, saying nothing. i guess that ship has sailed, or will be soon in any case.) so miss bk: happy trails to you! may our lives never intertwine again. and if they do, may i be very very inebriated and forget my manners!

bk tells me with a snort (and a straight face) that while miss bk cheated on him with her now fiance, she later cheated on her now fiance with bk. oh what a tangled web we weave! (and here i am living in domestic bliss. i know, boring right?) meanwhile bk is currently seeing a 24 year old with a four year old daughter of her own. he tells me that she's a 'good girl. a really good girl.' and maybe she is. she lives a few hours away and of course this spells more cancelled visits for MY kids as lately he's trying to coordinate the long distance thing with a 'single mom' (poor thing...i can't even begin to imagine what that's like!). it also explains the new tattoo and the belaboring about the trials and joys of single fatherhood at children's birthday parties (*waves to colleen*).

so um, yeah, on this eve of fathers' day bk i present you with this. and to the man who is actually helping me raise our lovely children: gratitude. mountains and mountains of gratitude. *muah*
